Arsenal 'highjacked' Jurrien Timber from Man United and Liverpool (reliability: 3 stars)

Arsenal have recently tabled an opening bid of £30 million to Ajax for centre-back Jurrien Timber, according to multiple top sources.

And FootballTransfers claim that the Gunners made their move after learning that Manchester United and Liverpool 'were stepping up their interest'.

Mikel Arteta's side acted quickly to 'highjack' the deal from their Premier League rivals as they look to bolster their squad ahead of the return to the Champions League.

Even though Erik ten Hag is personally interested in the 22-year-old whom he knows from their time at Ajax, Timber is pushing to join Arsenal but the Eredivisie giants are asking for £50 million.
